Where do we meet during session?

All sessions are conducted via telehealth platforms with clients who are in Texas and Montana. Each client will have their own link to a secure and private video chat. This makes it easier and more convenient to meet.

Are Telehealth sessions as effective as in person?

Yes! Telehealth sessions are as effective as in person. Since 2020 there have been many studies that demonstrate this effectiveness.

Do you accept insurance?

Yes. Currently I accept United Health and Blue Cross Blue Shield. I am in the process of credentialing with multiple other insurance companies. This credentialing process can take 1-4 months to complete. Please check back for updates on insurances I accept. I can provide a Superbill which you can submit to your insurance and attempt reimbursement if I am not yet credentialed with your insurance.

How long are therapy sessions?

Sessions are 50-55 minutes long.

How long does therapy take?

This depends one many factors: the work you want to accomplish, how complicated presenting issues are, if you are willing to work on issues between sessions, and others. People typically see their therapist for 6 months to a year. Of course, some attend a shorter time and some longer. Therapy is as effective as you are willing to put in the work.

How do I know we are a good fit to work together?

Our first session is an assessment session. During this session we talk about presenting issues and what you are hoping to accomplish. This helps me determine that I am qualified to work with you according to my skillset. I then share how I do therapy to see if that seems like a good fit for you. If at the end of our session we both feel it is a good fit, I will schedule you for weekly session and we continue to assess fit throughout our work. If at any time you begin to feel we are not a good fit, I am happy to help you find a therapist that fits better. My goal is for you to find the best therapist for you, whether or not that is me.

How often will we meet?

Initially we will meet weekly. We will periodically reassess frequency throughout our work together. If you begin to feel you need bi-weekly, we will discuss the appropriateness based on your needs and decide together.

Do you advocate for marginalized populations?

Yes. I am dedicated to anti-racist, anti-bias work. I advocate for marginalized populations in society. I am LGBTQIA2S+ allied. I am body acceptance allied, and an advocate for disabled persons. I am ethical non-monogamy allied as well as sex positive and kink allied. I am HIV/AIDs allied. I have done much work for inclusion in my practice, through awareness of my own biases, attending trainings, attending social justice movements, and advocating for policy changes.

How much does a session cost?

My fee for a session currently is $195. This fee is subject to periodic changes.

How do I set up an appointment?

Please contact me to set up a phone screen and request an appointment.

Cancellation policy?

I request 24 hours notice for appointment cancellations, otherwise I charge the full fee for that session. The reason for this is because I put a lot of work into my clients. I prepare before each session and review cases in their entirety prior to session during my planning for those sessions. In addition, I attend trainings and consultations to ensure my clients are receiving the best therapy I can offer.

Do you consult with other therapists

Consultation is a common practice among therapists.  I regularly consult with colleagues each week, as well as attend multiple Continued Education Unit (CEU) trainings each year.  This allows me to provide the best therapy practices to my clients.
